Ordering - BBD

New Feature

Sales order customers require specific BBD shelf lives on stocks which vary from the Warehouse system default.

The Warehouse default will be used unless overridden by the customer specific product shelf life (configurable in Customer Maintenance new ‘Products’ tab), which is communicated to the warehouse system during order submission.

VC-3303

Customer / supplier own product codes

New Feature

A product translation matrix is stored for customers & suppliers, in their respective screens the customer / supplier's own product codes can now be stored and these are visible and available to search by during POP / SOP creation.

For customers, SOPs communicated to the warehouse now contain the customer's own product code, should the warehouse wish to output this information on delivery notes etc.  The customer's product code is now also available on sales invoice templates alongside the company's product code.

For suppliers, similar changes to POP have been made as described for SOP above but for the POP documentation only, this information is not submitted to the warehouse.

"Delivering" orders - terminology change

When the warehouse confirm that an order is despatched, this has always had the ability to mark the Commerce order as “delivered” but this term is actually untrue.  As such the terminology is changing from 'Delivered' to 'Despatched' to make this clearer.

Efforts have been made to change every occurrence of the word, any which have been missed will be changed in future versions.

Customer maintenance - transaction tab

On clicking the Transaction tab of Customer Maintenance, if the accounts system contained a transaction without a date, an error appeared and the results are not displayed.

Screen scaling

Changes made application wide to ensure that when the user has Windows configured to scale the display size that everything within the app continues to display as it should, previously some controls would appear larger than others making it impossible to use the application.

Commerce does not support scaling, therefore if the screens appear too small then users are advised to adjust their display resolution.
